PMEF-2021 officially opened in the Expoforum at 10:00. However, the first guests arrived at the site earlier - before 9:00. This is how the congress and exhibition center was decorated with their arrival. Most of today's sessions will be held as part of the program “Forum SME”, “Forum of Creative Business”, as well as the “Forum of Medicinal Security”.

At the entrance of guests, I met a robot dog-the development of the Chinese company Unitree Robotics. He entertained people, running in different directions. In general, these models, as noted on the Unitree website, are able to dance, make a somersault and help with little mobility.

PMEF guests drew attention to four types of menu in the buffet, the cost of each of which is 3800 rubles. Even Ksenia Sobchak was indignant at the cost, who came to moderate the session “World art dot: what is not enough for Russian megacities to get such a status?”

This year the main country of Gostoma, this year was Qatar. The country's large -scale pavilion is made in gold and red colors.

In addition to the stands of large brands and corporations on the PMEF there is a stand of the Prosecutor General. True, as the Fontanka notes , there is nothing but table and chairs. On Friday, the prosecutor general will perform there.

On the forum you can also see the stand of the International Agency for Sovereign Development, painted under Khokhlom. Against the background of the image of Jesus, a girl sits in a kokoshnik and a mask.

In addition to the Prosecutor General and the International Agency for Sovereign Development, their stand on the forum was also set by Uralhim and Uralkali. Decorators laid out the image of Yuri Gagarin from living roses.

One of the most popular meetings of this morning was the discussion with Dania Milokhin. He talked about the work of a tiktoker, and the session participants, including Alfa-Bank marketing, Alexei Giyazov, vice president of Aliexpress marketing communications in Russia Oleg Lebedev, blogger Stanislav Kruglitsky and others discussed investment in Tiktok House. After the session, Milokhin shot a video for Tiktok.

At the walls of the Peter and Paul Fortress, the booth - builders who install it, were also noticed, the correspondent of the “Paper” reported that there will be a circus for the PMEF guests.

On Friday, June 4, PMEF is planning to visit Russian President Vladimir Putin . He must perform at the plenary meeting and take part in the subsequent discussion.

In St. Petersburg, in half of the premium restaurants that the “paper” called up, there are still places for the coming days. The tables are free for armor in Commons, Nordic restaurants, as well as in the "Bloc".

Another popular discussion of the first day of the forum - “What does Russia come up with now?” She was modified by Tina Kandelaki, and among the participants of the meeting were Sergey Shnurov, Timur Bekmambetov and Julian Slashchev.

In St. Petersburg, several PMEF participants were hospitalized , the press service of the Health Committee said. Earlier, Beglov said that an increase in temperature at the forum participant will cause hospitalization and isolation.

The city also unexpectedly blocked the palace bridge towards Nevsky Prospekt. Due to the overlap on the nearby streets, traffic jams formed. For example, cars are in the palace passage, on the Admiralty and Voznesensky Avenues.

And in the publication "Gazeta.ru" complained that the journalists who work on the forum offered to eat soup without spoons.
